In this paper we define and provide a general construction for a class of policies we call dynamic policies. In most existing systems, policies are implemented and enforced by ch...

Modeling and formally analyzing active network systems and protocols is quite challenging, due to their highly dynamic nature and the need for new network models. We propose a wid...
This paper describes the design, implementation and performance of an open, high performance, dynamically extensible router under development at Washington University in St. Louis...

Active applications can add value to communication. Yet it involves sophisticated domain knowledge and complex development process. In this paper we discuss a framework for the co...
We present the architecture, design, and implementation of a Smart Environment for Network Control, Monitoring and Management (SENCOMM). SENCOMM uses active network technology to ...
